The MANHATTAN SuperSpeed USB to SATA Adapter connects SATA, enhanced-SATA drives and ATA / ATAPI devices to desktop and notebook computers through a SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) port. Transferring and sharing files between desktop and notebook computers, backing up files or storing large file archives on external drives is faster and easier to accomplish. Compatibility with hard drives up to 3.5" - including 2.5" notebook computer drives - makes this a versatile tool for professional and home users.
